Features

CPA practice-management features for staying on time.

From the moment a client is added to the moment their filing is closed, TaxOnPad keeps the work visible.

Automatic deadline engine

Add a client and enrol them in services. TaxOnPad generates every filing period and due date — federal, state and payroll — and recalculates when anything changes.

Work Status board

One board for every client and period. Prioritised statuses, overdue flags, custom status types and a full history of who changed what.

Federal, state & payroll

Sales tax by state and frequency, income tax returns, estimated tax, payroll compliance and state registrations in a single calendar.

Client registry

Companies, officers, owners, employees and EINs in one place. Import your existing list from Excel instead of retyping it.

Encrypted client vault

Store client portal logins encrypted behind a PIN. The vault locks itself after a timer, so credentials are never left open.

Client portal

Give each client their own login to see filing status at a glance — fewer “where are we?” emails and calls.

Built-in chat

Message clients and teammates inside the same system where the work happens, with the conversation tied to the client.

Invoicing

Branded invoices, multiple bank accounts, exchange rates and payment recording — billing without a second tool.

Team attendance & salary slips

Clock in and out, set salary profiles and generate salary slips for your own staff.

Multi-office & partner sharing

Work across several offices, and share selected clients with outsourcing partners using share codes and per-item permissions.

Roles & permissions

Admin, preparer, viewer and client roles decide who sees which pages and data. Each firm's data is isolated from every other firm's.

Audit log

Every important change is recorded per client and per filing, so you can always answer “who did this, and when?”

What tax and compliance work does TaxOnPad track?

Each service generates its own periods and due dates per client, and per state where that applies.
